Which physiological change should a nurse expect to observe when assessing an elderly client?

“I can’t promise that the information won’t be shared if your health or safety is involved.” This response by the nurse would be appropriate because it respects the client’s confidentiality while also acknowledging its limits of it. The nurse has a duty to report any information that may indicate a risk of harm to the client or others.

Choice A is wrong because it dismisses the client’s need to share something and implies that the nurse is not interested or trustworthy.

Choice B is wrong because it gives a false assurance of confidentiality and may lead to ethical dilemmas if the client reveals something that requires reporting.

Choice C is wrong because it does not address the issue of confidentiality and may give the impression that the nurse is trying to avoid the conversation.

Chicken breast, green beans, and a glass of milk. This is because chicken breast is a good source of protein, which is essential for wound healing. Green beans are rich in vitamin C, which helps with collagen synthesis and immune function. Milk is a good source of calcium and vitamin D, which are important for bone health and healing.

Choice A is wrong because cheese pizza and french fries are high in fat and sodium, which can increase inflammation and delay wound healing. Orange juice is high in sugar, which can also impair wound healing and increase the risk of infection.

Choice B is wrong because cheeseburger and potato chips are also high in fat and sodium, and have similar effects as choice A. Soda is also high in sugar and can cause dehydration, which can slow down wound healing.

Choice D is wrong because spaghetti and meatballs are high in refined carbohydrates, which can spike blood sugar levels and impair wound healing.

A roll is also a refined carbohydrate and does not provide much fiber or nutrients. Chocolate pudding is high in sugar and fat, and can also worsen wound healing.
